Go to Picture Tools, make sure that Lock Aspect Ratio and Relative to Original size are ticked off. Then set the picture widths to the widths indicated in the images, ie. 5.27″ or 3.32″ or 3.9″. You can put the 3.32 and 3.9 on one letter size paper, just reduce your margins.

Sun, 21 Dec 2014 05:36:00 +0000http://artofmanliness.com/?p=29065#comment-1136660Just ran across this… super excited to try it, as my previous attempts at making wallets currently look like leather greeting cards :p I also had trouble printing the pattern… It’s pretty easy to remedy this, though. Just measure the small version of the pattern, making sure to note how far the notches are from the edges and how far they extend upwards, etc. and redraw it by hand to the correct size. Takes maybe twenty minutes, but it’s really almost as enjoyable as making the wallet itself :) I’m gonna fidget with it and sew in a change pocket and a guitar pick holder (something I saw once that I thought would be a nice touch). Thanks for the pattern!
lol! only noticed the updated pattern after I already drew out my own… Oh, well…. My natural attention to detail is spotty, at best :p
